Meijer Dairy-Free Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Why these meals: Your week kicks off on Monday with Fresh from Meijer Pork Loin Assorted Chops (2 lbs for $3.98), roasted alongside $1.98 sweet potatoes and broccoli crowns. Chicken appears twice, as crispy baked wings on Tuesday ($6.98 for 2.5 lbs) and a quick tenderloin stir-fry on Thursday ($5.99 for 1.5 lbs), and beef appears twice as well, in Wednesday's ground chuck chili skillet ($8.99 for 1.5 lbs) and Friday's braised chuck roast ($13.98 for 2 lbs). The bell peppers (4 for $5.00) and the Heat & Eat Rice (4 packs for $5.56) each stretch across both Wednesday and Thursday, so you buy them once and use them twice. Everything is built on plain oil, salt, pepper and garlic, so it stays dairy-free, but give the BBQ sauce and the Asian cooking sauce labels a quick look on the shelf. Friday's roast needs a morning start, so sear and assemble it before the day gets busy and let the oven handle the rest.
